Laravel 405 error + no api methods in artisan routes:list

Question

I have an error when calling for POST requests through API.

If I calling put method through web.php than everything works fine, however when I request PUT(POST) method via api.php - I have 405 error:

"405 Method Not Allowed"

Moreover if I put command php artisan routes:list in a console I could see solely routes which are placed in web.php file. If I, for example, clean web.php I see an empty routes:list despite the fact that api.php file is full.

Get requests from api.php are processing well.

api.php route file:

<?php

use Dingo\Api\Routing\Router;

$router = app(Router::class);

$router->version('v1', function(Router $router){

  $router->group(['namespace'=>'App\Http\Controllers'], function(Router $router){

      $router->post('test', 'PostController@store');

  });    

});

If you are sending requests through HTML, you need use method spoofing. If you do not see routes that are defined in api.php in the console (art route:lis) you need to check RouteServiceProvider. Good Luck. — Kyslik
@Kyslik Thank you for your support. Could I manually check PUT/POST request through Postman? — vppy
Yea requests sent via Postman should work as expected (without the spoofing). — Kyslik
If you are sending POST, you need to define a route as Route::post(...) if you are sending (or want to send) PUT you need to define a route as Route::put(...). Obviously something is wrong here, with your api.php; you should paste it here. You can not expect me nor anyone else to guess the contents of the file where the problem is... — Kyslik
Excellent, where in the original body is dingo/api mentioned? Wow, I am amazed. Next time include all details from the beginning. Anyway, please do consult dingo wiki, from step 1 to 3. I can tell you now, if you can not figure this out yourself, you do not need dingo/api at all. Just stick to pure Laravel or take a look at spatie's packages instead, that may guide you. I am frank in order to help you in the long run. Good luck! :) — Kyslik

Such issue could happens if you request your route in Postman through a GET request. Please check it careful if it is not your issue.
